Pickleball 101 Series: Video 3, The Kitchen Ever heard of the “kitchen” in pickleball? It’s the 7-foot zone on both sides of the net where you can’t hit the ball in the air (that’s called a volley) if you’re standing in it. Here’s why it matters: No Volleys in the Kitchen: You must stay out of the kitchen when hitting the ball before it bounces! Keeps the Game Fair: This rule stops players from just smashing balls down from the net. Strategy Over Power: It helps keep the game about skill and strategy, not just strength. How to Avoid a Kitchen Violation: Don’t Stand in the Kitchen: When hitting a volley, your feet should be behind the kitchen line. Wait for the Bounce: You can step into the kitchen to hit a ball that has bounced. Next time you play, remember the kitchen rule for a fair and fun game! #Pickleball #KitchenRule #PickleballTips #pickleballlife Have you made your teams yet?
